Microsoft just announced the 360 Game of the Year bundle, containing an Elite, Halo 3 and Fable II for $399.

That means the games are free, essentially. It’s out in May.

I don’t remember Halo 3 or Fable 2 being Game of the Year….

EDIT: (ofcourse I just block out the bad things)

What’s the “bonus inside” thingy do you reckon?

I was playing Halo 3 multiplayer over the weekend.

I honestly don’t understand what people see in it.

@ Lutz:

Something to do with Netflix. Probably a limited period of free rentals.

I do, it’s really competetive, strategic and balanced. And most importantly it’s got superb game options. Recording battles, screenshots and Forge. I can see why it really works for some people.

But for me, it’s some of the most unsatisfying fundamental gameplay ever.

Yeah, it’s the basic gameplay that I find uninspiring.

The weak feeling weapons and floaty physics just make it feel a bit too lightweight.

I didn’t love it because I got killed all the time. Some people are just godlike with their thumbsticks. Co-op is fun, tho.

this is a great fuckin deal.

to add to the convo: I think the “floaty” physics kind of make sense since you’re in not on earth. The suits are definitely overpowered and no headshot is automatic unless it’s by an extremely powerful gun, which is logical i guess with the samus suit, but it’s still silly.

I loved Fable 2 and Halol 3 is ‘functional’. Decent pack.
